Wedding composition describing hometown

My hometown is in Yunnan, a beautiful Zhuang village. Although I have only been there twice, in my impression, everything is so fresh and interesting in that small village near the mountains and rivers. The air there is fresh and the environment is beautiful. The people there are hardworking and simple, and they can sing and dance well. I have read a book that Zhuang people have been good at using abundant water resources to grow rice in history, and women are good at embroidery. That's true.

However, what impressed me was the local wedding ceremony, which was very special and unforgettable for a long time. I went back to my hometown that Spring Festival, attended my cousin's wedding and witnessed the unique local wedding customs. One of the most special scenes is the scene where the bride rushes into the groom's house.

I heard the rule beforehand: when the bride arrives at the groom's door, she has to go through a "pledge" before she can enter. When the bride approaches the door, the "artillery" group composed of young men will set off firecrackers to form a wall of fire. If the bride is timid, she should stay away and wait for the next "charge". The "gunmen" summed up their experience and prepared for the second "ban". Generally speaking, a bride can't enter the house without two or three "charges". After "hard struggle", the bride has the last pass to the entrance of the bridal chamber, which is also the most difficult one. At this time, clever bridesmaids and bridesmaids will "scout" around and jump into the bridal chamber with the bride in their arms when the gunfire is sparse.

That time, I witnessed my cousin, the bride, enter the door. When my cousin came to the door, the gunman started shooting. Cousin is going to rush in, but she can't. The second time, I still didn't get in. The third time, the clever cousin stepped back three or four steps and ran forward with a jerk. Hey, too many! I am secretly happy for her. The most difficult level, my heart clenched tightly, for fear that she would not pass the exam. The bridesmaid (my other cousin) covered the bride's face with a red cloth. When the firecrackers faded away, the groom's mother and bridesmaid pinched their cousin, stood on tiptoe and jumped into the door. Yeah! We went in. People started cheering, blowing horns and playing drums, and at that time the whole scene was filled with cheers. Let's congratulate the bride on her success.

It's been two years since the wedding, but I still remember it vividly.

My hometown is in Anhua, where traditional wedding customs are still preserved.

As soon as the bride arrived, the bridegroom's house was crackling with firecrackers and "whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa They wear colorful clothes and play cheerful, sonorous and lively music. The scene cannot be described in words. You see, an elder sister in a wedding dress gently got off the sedan chair, and then an old woman immediately helped her into the hall, where the groom had been waiting for a long time! The old woman picked up a red ribbon for the bride and groom to hold in their hands. The master of ceremonies shouted "Silence", and the whole hall was suddenly silent. The master of ceremonies cleared his throat and then shouted, "First, worship heaven and earth-second, worship the high hall-the husband and wife worship each other-and send them to the bridal chamber! "Then a plate of salt and a plate of stone came up next to the men, which means that their marriage is a pledge of eternal love. Hey! At this time, why did everyone's eyes turn to a little boy? It turns out that the little boy is giving two red eggs to the bride and groom, which means "having a baby early". These two eggs pinned the best wishes of their loved ones on the newlyweds.

Next, it's time for tea. The bride and groom picked up fragrant tea from the bridesmaid's tray, went to their parents and respectfully handed them the tea in their hands. Parents happily took the tea, savored it, took out a big red envelope from their arms and handed it to the couple. This is another sincere expectation of their elders to live in harmony and grow old together.

"Into the bridal chamber!" The emcee shouted. Suddenly the hall was full of people, and the bride and groom walked into their happy world with everyone's laughter. There are two pots of vibrant Dianthus in front of the new house, which means that the couple's life is thriving.

The wedding in my hometown is really lively, grand, interesting and unforgettable.
